Error - Out of Video Memory Trying to Allocate a Texture - HELP?
Hi all,

Having an issue on my pc even on the lowest graphics and lowest texture options (all set to low, off, 512x512 or 400 mb) on a capable PC and I am still getting the following error message:

"Error

Out of video memory trying to allocate a texture! Make sure your video card has the minimum required memory, try lowering the resolution and/or closing other applications that are running. Exiting..."

I have also set -USEALLAVAILABLECORES in the launch options. Any ideas what else I could try? I usually run games on med/high (even pubg) without issue.

Rig is as followed:

FX 8350 @ 4.0GHz
R9 380 nitro 4GB
Win 10 x64
16GB ddr3 ram (1600 mhz)

No issue with any other game.

Any and all advice welcome, thanks!

Here give this a go it should solve you issue, goto settings, video, texture streaming pool size, from there set it to half of your actual vram.

Update: Now it just crashes in game after around 3 minutes. Happened a couple of times now (usually after a death)

Update.. Hey guys, I had a look through some issues and found my page file was turned off. If your system is over 8GB Ram then set to system set, seemed to have fixed my issue

It still crashes every so often, but had a two hour stint without it breaking so that's something...

Anyone else suffering from the same thing? D:
